Early hours of Monday, September 26, Interpol issued a Red Notice
against the founder of Luna Classic, DO Kwon. This issuance
resulted from Do Kwon losing more than $60 billion in investors’
wealth. The prosecutors in South Korea explained that Kwon is
facing charges for the erosion of investors’ money. In addition to
his charges, Do Kwon stands accused of violating the ‘Capital
Markets Law,’ with multiple breaches cited. Related Reading:

September 26, 2022 This issue has created conversations in the
crypto market regarding the future of Terra firm and the
algorithmic stablecoins. This article details events surrounding Do
Kwon and how he made it into Interpol’s most wanted List.
Earlier Developments Leading To Kwon’s Red Notice Earlier
this year, the Terra ecosystem collapsed, unheard of in an evolving
Defi space. The crash hurt the crypto market, with other financial
markets feeling its effects. Crypto Analysts believe that investors
lost over $45 billion in wealth. After the crash, he
relocated Terra Headquarters from South Korea to Singapore due to
being under investigation for tax evasion charges in South Korea.
In an interview, the Terra founder said he would cooperate with
investigative agencies in the Terra crash and has nothing to hide.
Further, Do Kwon acclaimed that he is a man with an “extremely high
bar of integrity.” However, South Korean prosecutors explicitly
refute Do Kwon’s statement claiming he was not cooperating and was
obviously on the run. As a result, Interpol has issued a Red Notice
on the Terra founder in over 196 countries. Terra Classic Price
Crash And Reversal Following the news of Interpol’s Red Notice on
Do Kwon, the downtrend price of Terra Classic continued. Taking
effect of the notice, the $LUNC price declined by nearly 20%
immediately after the news, leaving investors disturbed. The
crash of the Terra Classic token has also led to the collapse of a
high-profile crypto hedge fund called Three Arrows Capital. This
issue has also impacted several crypto lenders offering LUNC in the
market. But unexpectedly, the $LUNC has reversed in price
action as there is an uptrend in the price. Per coinmarketcap.com,
LUNC has gained over 50% in the last 24 hours and currently trades
at $0.0003074. Investors should be wary as it could lead to a
classic pump and dump scheme. The crypto community awaits further
development in price as the search for Do Kwon intensifies. What Is
The Future Of LUNC A spokesperson for South Korea explained that
the Red Notice against Kwon would set a wrong precedence for the
crypto industry and may cripple future innovations in the market.
